Books By Author Dr. Helen Likierman

Many children spend their entire school lives struggling with their school work. Research has shown that at least 10-15 per cent of children with apparently normal learning ability will have a significant problem with school learning. This book aims to address these issues and to help parents understand and deal with them.

Aimed both at parents of pre-school children and at teachers and carers, this book includes charts, checklists, questionnaires and structured activities for developing children's skills as well as promoting their emotional well-being. It answers the questions every parent asks when their child is about to leave their care.
